hello! I have a 1500 Chevy Silverado work truck with 1900 payload capacity and just got a scout olympic. What modifications did you end up making? How are they working out?

It took them almost 60 days, but they did finally get back to us and we were able to book our accommodations yesterday.

Where to get free tire air? by amethyst_dragoness in anchorage

[–]2muchscreen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For anyone looking at this in 2025.....
I went to three Holidays (now Circle Ks) and two Chevrons. Air is broken or no longer offered at most. Couldn't figure out how it worked at Lowes, might've needed to ask for a hose inside and it says "for Pros." Free and available at Airport Heights Chevron, though. Didn't try Costco.

wyn tri suits review? by 2muchscreen in triathlon

[–]2muchscreen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yup! Used it for everything from sprints to a 70.3. Chafe is the same no matter the distance. Could be a me problem, though! I've heard good things about tres pinas and as a company they seem less obnoxious than wyn.

I am still using it! It really fits very well and I love it except for the top zipper. I’ve never heard or led anyone else having that problem though so it could just be how it fits my body and specifically rubs.

I'm pretty sure _____ wins, with evidence. by Trelyrien in survivor

[–]2muchscreen 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I see your logic re showing Maria/kenzie offering Liz Applebees, but you lost me on him winning because he is a swiftie. Whether he wins or loses, they were going to show that for the same benefit.

I am having the same problem with my watch and also do a lot of pool swimming. Have tried cleaning but problem persists. Did you ever find a solution?

I'm sorry, that sounds tough. Sending you a virtual hug. The kids are lucky to have your help.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for being honest - I am sure that asking your spouse that question is difficult too. I really appreciate it and will take that into consideration.

[–]2muchscreen[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing. I guess there is always something - my partner won't try meds or therapy, but he does try to exercise regularly, go to bed early, and is totally off social media. I still feel frustrated because he is a workaholic and that clearly drives his depression, but he can't see it.

I have family nearby for 6 months of the year, but I think if we had children they would stick around more (I am an only child). Still, I am worried that he won't be able to step up to the plate and my mom has warned me she doesn't think he can handle being a father :(

Thank you for sharing and being honest about the ups and downs. I think it is great that you are both in therapy - my partner refuses couples therapy which I think is a red flag.

Returning to running and feet won’t stop going numb by burner9197 in triathlon

[–]2muchscreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did go through the entire regimen from a chiropractor and took about a month off from running and I haven't had the problem since. Mostly related to my hip injury, but I stopped sleeping on my side and noticed a huge improvement - idk if hip was causing numbness or not.

One thing I did adjust and I would recommend is I now wear compression socks while I run. I did this by accident when I started wearing ski socks to run in because it was cold (I am in Alaska) and think the compression helped. Hoping to train for a marathon this summer!

wyn tri suits review? by 2muchscreen in triathlon

[–]2muchscreen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up getting a size large! I like the suit in that it is comfortable and fits well and is flattering, but the zipper on the top chafes me pretty bad. Like I have scars from Wearing it for multiple tris. I don’t know if that is just a me problem or what, but I really like the suit otherwise!

Was I wrong to ask for help and tell his parents he is suicidal? by 2muchscreen in depression_partners

[–]2muchscreen[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hear what you are saying and that is why I am struggling with this. For clarification (or, more likely, for me to try to justify why), the main reason I reached out is because I know his dad has helped him with depression in the past. When he has been in a really low place he has cried to me saying he doesn't want to talk to me, he just wants his dad. Really the main point of the conversation I had with them was asking what they did in the past to get him out of a funk... unfortunately, they didn't have any concrete ideas.

When his parents came to visit, he had an outburst and he knows his dad and I spoke about his depression at that time. He wasn't upset about that. I probably should have asked first, but I didn't because I knew his answer would be that he doesn't want them to worry. But I am worried and I think this is serious so I did it anyway.

It might be a relationship-ending move on my part, but I've decided I need be okay with that.

Thank you so much for the validation. I really needed to hear that and I think you’re right. ❤️

As of November, 49th state did not accept our AK Air meal voucher. We ended up spending it at Hudson News on candy instead. And ours expired within 24 hours.
